Aging-related memory impairment and pathological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease differ between males females, yet little is known about how aging-related changes in the transcriptome chromatin environment sexes hippocampus. To investigate this question, we compared accessibility landscape gene expression/alternative splicing pattern of young adult aged mouse hippocampus both females using ATAC-seq RNA-seq. We detected significant aging-dependent expression genes involved immune response synaptic function alternative myelin sheath genes. found sex-bias hundreds genes, including female-biased male-biased function. Aging was associated with increased male female hippocampus, especially repetitive elements, an increase LINE-1 transcription. autosomes X chromosome, enriched at promoters CpG-rich regions. Sex differences were amplified aging, findings that may shed light on sex loss.

Repairing spinal cord injury (SCI) is a global medical challenge lacking effective clinical treatment. Developing human-engineered tissues that can replenish lost cells and restore regenerative microenvironment offers promising potential for SCI therapy. However, creating vascularized human cord-like (VSCT) mimic the diverse cell types longitudinal parallel structural features of remains significant hurdle. In present study, VSCTs are engineered using embryonic cord-derived neural endothelial on linear-ordered collagen scaffolds (LOCS). Studies have shown astrocytes align along in VSCT, supporting axon extension from various neurons myelinated by oligodendrocytes. After transplantation into rats, VSCT survives at sites promotes endogenous regeneration vascularization, ultimately reducing scarring enhancing behavioral functional recovery. It suggests pre-vascularization beneficial treatment highlights important role exogenous tissue engineering.

Brain and spinal cord imaging plays a pivotal role in aiding clinicians with the diagnosis monitoring of multiple sclerosis. Nevertheless, significance magnetic resonance MS extends beyond its clinical utility. Advanced modalities have facilitated vivo detection various components pathogenesis, and, recent years, MRI biomarkers been utilized to assess response patients relapsing-remitting available treatments. Similarly, indicators neurodegeneration demonstrate potential as primary secondary endpoints trials targeting progressive phenotypes. This review aims provide an overview latest advancements brain neuroimaging MS.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex condition that can resolve over time but all too often leads to persistent symptoms, and the risk of poor patient outcomes increases with aging. TBI damages neurons long axons within white matter tracts are critical for communication between regions; this causes slowed information processing neuronal circuit dysfunction. This review focuses on after multifactorial processes underlie damage, potential recovery, progression degeneration. A multiscale perspective across clinical preclinical advances presented encourage interdisciplinary insights from whole-brain neuroimaging down cellular molecular responses axons, myelin, glial cells tissue.

Abstract Demyelination in the central nervous system (CNS) is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and others. Here, we studied astrocytes during de‐ remyelination cuprizone mouse model. To this end, exploited ribosomal tagging (RiboTag) technology that based on Cre‐mediated cell type‐selective HA‐tagging ribosomes. Analyses were performed corpus callosum GFAP‐Cre +/− Rpl22 HA/wt mice 5 weeks after feeding, at peak demyelination, 0.5 2 withdrawal, when tissue repair initiated. After reactive showed inflammatory signatures with enhanced expression genes modulate leukocyte migration ( Tlr2 , Cd86 Parp14 ) they produced chemokine CXCL10, verified by histology. Furthermore, demyelination‐induced expressed numerous ligands including Cx3cl1 Csf1 Il34 Gas6 act homeostatic well activated microglia thus potentially mediate activation recruitment enhancement their phagocytotic activity. During early remyelination, HA‐tagged cells displayed reduced response signatures, indicated shutdown CXCL10 production, osteopontin (SPP1) factors are relevant for remodeling Timp1 ), regeneration axonal repair. late shifted towards resolving inflammation active suppression lymphocyte differentiation support glia differentiation. In conclusion, detected highly dynamic astroglial transcriptomic model, which reflects excessive communication among highlights different astrocyte functions neurodegeneration regeneration.
